Although there has been tremendous progress in exploring new configurations of zinc‐ion hybrid supercapacitors (Zn‐HSCs) recently, the much lower energy density, especially the much lower areal energy density compared with that of the rechargeable battery, is still the bottleneck, which is impeding their wide applications in wearable devices. Herein, the pre‐intercalation of Zn2+ which gives rise to a highly stable tunnel structure of ZnxMnO2 in nanowire form that are grown on flexible carbon cloth with a disruptively large mass loading of 12 mg cm−2 is reported. More interestingly, the ZnxMnO2 nanowires of tunnel structure enable an ultrahigh areal energy density and power density, when they are employed as the cathode in Zn‐HSCs. The achieved areal capacitance of up to 1745.8 mF cm−2 at 2 mA cm−2, and the remarkable areal energy density of 969.9 µWh cm−2 are comparable favorably with those of Zn‐ion batteries. When integrated into a quasi‐solid‐state device, they also endow outstanding mechanical flexibility. The truly battery‐level Zn‐HSCs are timely in filling up of the battery‐supercapacitor gap, and promise applications in the new generation flexible and wearable devices.
Mo-doped SnS2 nanosheets supported on carbon cloth are synthesized. The nanosheets, as additive-free integrated electrodes for LIBs, exhibit a high initial discharge capacity, superior cycling performance and rate capability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
